Chapter 2413 Time Pause and Hypnosis

Thinking in his heart, Shade walked down the stairs with Miss Elither. The cold fog in the "anteroom" of the catacombs became thicker and thicker. After pushing open the tightly closed stone door that was locked from the inside, with a strange "creaking" sound, a skeleton holding a rusty sword in the open door chopped towards Shade.

Shad and Miss Eliza looked very calm, and the phantom skeleton passed through Shad's body and disappeared immediately.

Looking inside, the dim tomb corridor was filled with cold white mist that seriously affected vision. Glowing white ghosts were wandering in it, and occasionally one could hear strange sounds made by the movement of skeletons and ghouls.

"It's an illusion combined with some necromancy. Although the technique is very clever, it's still not particularly strong."

Miss Elather judged:

"Do you need me to break the ritual? I can just turn into my dragonborn form and roar."

"No, no. I'm worried that forcibly breaking the ritual will destroy what we're looking for. Besides, I also want to see who is trapped here."

As he spoke, Shade raised his right hand. A faint spiritual light emerged in his palm, and then condensed into a glowing white transparent crystal above his palm.

Under the influence of the spell, the white transparent crystal floated beside Shade and Miss Elizabeth. As Shade gently touched the crystal, the moonlight attached to the crystal, making the light it emitted brighter - this was the basic application of the "light spell".

The crystal rotated clockwise in the air, and the cold mist within two meters in front of them disappeared, the wandering spirit disappeared, and the strange sound disappeared. In fact, there was nothing in the corridor in front of the two people except dust.

"Let's go."

Shade waved to Miss Elizabeth:

"Don't rush to find something, go see who is here first."

In order to prevent tomb robbery, the underground cemetery of the Wright family, which has a history of nearly a thousand years, was built like a maze, but "strong spatial perception" is most effective for this kind of terrain.

Miss Eliza blocked the voices and footsteps of the two people, and the two walked and stopped deep into the cemetery. The rotating crystal provided moonlight for illumination. During this time, in addition to the illusions broken by the crystal, there were indeed ancient corpse ghosts and ancient vengeful spirits that were revived by the ritual and walked out of the tombs of different sizes on the side of the cemetery corridor, but they were all dispersed by Miss Eliza's wave of her hand.

The person trapped here was deep in the tomb passage. Before the two men saw anyone, they heard a series of violent banging sounds.

When I got closer, I saw a middle-aged man in his thirties wearing glasses, leaning against the side wall of the corridor with a little fear. The luminous badge-shaped relic hanging on his chest created an eggshell-shaped transparent shield to protect him, while two vengeful spirits, two corpse ghosts and a skeleton wearing armor and holding a long sword were taking turns to hit the shield, trying to weaken the power of the shield with their own strength.

Neither the wraiths nor the ghouls were very strong, but the armored skeleton could be classified as a "special undead." It was probably the strongest "tombkeeper" left by the ancient ring sorcerers of the Wright family. Although the undead just swung its sword and kept hitting the shield, judging from the quality of its soul, in a place like a tomb that was suitable for its survival, it could be considered a sixth or seventh ring sorcerer.

As for the middle-aged man with a pale face, who obviously had consumed too much energy, he looked like he should be a five-ring man.

The blue-eyed girl glanced at Xia De, who gestured to her not to come out, and then walked out from the corner of the cemetery corridor.

He didn't try to hide himself, so the man with glasses saw Xia De at once.

Of course, the undead also noticed the appearance of another living person. But since they already had a target to attack, they did not choose to attack Shade, who was blessed by "thousands of souls".

"Sir, no matter who you are, for the sake of being alive, can you save me?"

Although he had no hope, the man with his back against the wall still asked for help from Shad.

"Okay."

Xia De nodded immediately, first pressed the badge on his chest, and then pointed his finger forward:

"Daylight rays."

The blazing golden positive energy stream followed the shaking of his fingers, neatly and neatly cutting the two corpse ghosts and two vengeful spirits into two parts. The vengeful spirits were shattered with piercing screams, and the corpse ghosts' bodies were set on fire.

The only skeleton that seemed to be fine was the one whose armor blocked the sunlight energy, so he turned around and slashed at Shad with his sword after he launched his attack.

Xia De casually threw out a scarlet moonlight, and the skeleton's sword collided with it. The moonlight shattered the sword like a hot knife through butter and broke its armor, almost cutting it in half.

But it had no chance to continue. After the armor was broken, a stream of hot positive energy swept across. So the skeleton's gradually burning lower body kept running forward, and it ran a few more steps before falling heavily to the ground, and the upper body fell directly to the original place.

The skeleton disappeared in the burning flames, and Shade continued to move forward with the [Angel Right Arm] in his hand. The trapped man with glasses finally withdrew the shield formed by the relic, panting, and then, as if his legs could not support his body, he slowly sat down with his back against the wall:

"Thank you. You saved me."

After trying hard to squeeze out the words of thanks from his throat, he took off the pendant from his neck and threw it to Xia De, but Xia De stopped him:

"Keep your own belongings safe. I'm not a robber. You just need to answer a few questions."

If he had said this at the beginning, the man might have hesitated. But Shade had already helped him solve a big problem, and he himself felt that he could not refuse:

"Please ask me. If I can answer, I will definitely answer. If I can't, just kill me."

"Actually there's no need to fight. What organization do you belong to? Don't tell me you're just an unlucky guy who's a lone grave robber."

The man smiled bitterly:

"Don't be ridiculous. Oh, my name is Claude Binns. I can only say that I am a local and my organization is also local. What do you want to ask me next? I think your purpose is the same as mine. I am here to find the relics left behind by the former ring wizard of the Wright family, the ring wizard who designed this trap."

He paused and added hastily:

"It's not a relic containing the whisper element, it's his real relic. My organization is actually very shabby, and we don't have many people. I thought I could come here alone, but I didn't expect that I would almost die here."

He didn't need Xia De to ask at all, because he knew exactly what Xia De wanted to ask:

“The relic I’m using is a clerical-level relic [Graverobber’s Despicable Medal], which my friend bought on the local black market not long ago.

In the cemetery environment, it adds a little luck, allowing spirits that were originally inaccessible to be directly contacted. Of course, the biggest use is to form the shield you see, but once the attack exceeds the upper limit, it will absorb the user's mental power and blood until the soul is consumed. The negative characteristics are that it is very easy to revive nearby undead and it is very easy to attract the attacks of undead. They were still on my side after you appeared just now because of this reason. "

In fact, it is the result of the superposition of two factors, but Xia De doesn't need to explain this.

"I thought I would be safe with this, but I was unlucky and triggered the trap. I never thought that someone would set up a ritual for resurrecting the dead in their own family cemetery."

"You've already said it, what else can I say?"

Xia De looked him up and down:

"Moon Bay City is similar to capitals like Willendel and Tobesk. Due to the importance of the city, the church's control is particularly strict, so there are not many cities that are qualified to call themselves 'local ring wizard organizations'.

I remember there were two groups of ring sorcerers who were mutual aid groups at the docks, a black market that held regular meetings in the forest north of the city, and a group in the lower city, but they were wanted by the church because they believed in asexual reproduction. There were a few more besides, but they were not large in scale. Which one do you belong to?"

The man slumped against the wall just shook his head:

"I can't say it. I won't betray the organization."

Shade heard Miss Elither's low cough from behind, so he stabbed the sword into the ground, reached into his pocket with his left hand to grab the lady's pocket watch, and pointed forward with his right hand:

"Time stands still for Adele."

Then he turned around and asked:

"what happened?"

"It's just five rings. There's no need to be so troublesome to ask questions."

The blue-eyed girl came out of the darkness:

"I am a twelfth ring person, I can still do this. This is not a battlefield where things change rapidly, I have plenty of time to prepare the spell."

She only prepared a little and nodded to Xia De, and when Xia De stopped time, her sea-blue eyes lit up:

"What organization do you belong to?"

The middle-aged man who was completely unable to resist because of "time standing still" immediately said with a dull expression:

"Light Eternal Light."

"How do you conceal your fate?"

Xia De asked again, but this time he didn't get an answer. It seemed that the man in front of him didn't know about this.

So Shade cast a spell again to stop the opponent's time, and waited until Miss Elither retreated into the darkness before he lifted the spell again. Although this consumed a lot of spirit, just as Miss Elither said, this was not a battlefield, and Shade would be fully recovered after a while:

"If you don't want to tell me, I won't force you."

He said to the man who had no idea what was happening and just felt something was wrong but didn't know what was wrong:

"Tell me the clues to the relics left by the ring wizard and how you got the clues, and then leave here. I don't think you are still coveting the relics of the ancient ring wizard."
